Dick Van Dyke is 100 years old tomorrow.
I hope he's making the most of his finally night of Lego building.

Shut the fuck up. I asked the Lady of the Lake, and she said you are unworthy of the sword Excalibur. You will never be king.

“Anti-trans activist and Binary Australia spokesperson Kirralie Smith has been ordered to pay $95,000 in fines and issue a public apology after she was found to have vilified two trans women earlier this year.”

Look, it’s possible to hold transphobes accountable for abusing trans people.

You can now answer, “Let’s circle back in the New Year,” to any work or personal agenda item you want to postpone with a clear conscious.

Write something. Write it today. Write your heart out. Write something weird that only you would think of. Your enemies will not topple to your silence. Write your future and live it.

The teenager who served me today at my local supermarket remembered me as the crazy chicken lady who was about to go pick up baby chicks last time she served me and demanded to know how they were and see photos and this is why self-checkouts just don’t suit everyone

This is a great piece from Mel Saward on some of the First Nations books that should have appeared on RN's Top 100 Books of the 21st Century.
The ABC’s Top 100 books poll lacks diversity. Here are my 10 First Nations ‘books of the 21st century’
Just three Aboriginal writers appeared in Radio National’s poll. There was little sense of the breadth and creativity of our First Nations writing scene.

Aaaaand we have ten instances of the word Champagne. All have to go, since ... this world has no France and therefore no Champagne region. I love revising. It isn't annoying at all.
Really, really want to use the phrase "a stranger in a strange land" in this thing I'm writing but am forcing myself not to since that's decidedly biblical and this is second-world fantasy. Am I gritting my teeth? Who can say #writing
